Stay You
Doing things to make you happy
And they do the opposite of what I intended
Try to get through while respecting your punishment
I am living my life and doing your bidding
I fall on my face and you don't offer an ounce of pity
But, I know I must stay me no matter what I get put through
I will always have a smile wherever I go
While bad times happen I will frown but the second that moments through
I will attempt to turn it upside down
I am not holding back tears and burying them down like a crater
Nor putting them to the side to save them for later
I am only no longer letting negativity put me down
Trying to change who I am and bring me to the ground
They say I have no respect or care just like any other
However it isn’t true but they say it because you smother,
Smother me with storms trying to knock me over
And you try to make this perfectly straight city I made spiral down
Please stop!
I know you don't realize it, but your actions surround me with this cloud of black
Which Makes me wonder if the other side is in lack
Lack of this hate and unwantedness towards me
maybe they only want me at my highest, and a happy face to see
Or will they not push me and let me reach my full potential too
Well I have so much love and kindness and no one to give it to
These are the ways some people fight
When they want to be themselves and are afraid of the other side.
